HELP! Quick question

[SumeaSaukko]

Hi, i’m just wondering since this is my first grow that is it normal if your plant to look like this for long Period of time? i’m week 5-6 right now, so just about to start flowering but i’ve not seen anything happening really for about a week now. Maybe its normal but i just want to make sure.

Personally I find not much normalness with autoflowering plants. That looks like an auto to me. The soil level looks a bit low, maybe she's hungry or her roots aren't happy. I don't see much badness on the leaves, a better picture without the light on would help. Do you have both red and blue lights running - veg & bloom? Is the lighting close enough to the canopy? I don't know your strain but adequate lighting is always key for success. I'm a late nighter, I'm sure someone else will be around to reply in a few hours. GL!

Yes, i forgot to mention that its a autoflower. The soil’s pretty low but the bucket is quite big so that shouldn’t be an matter there’s atleast 2 Gallons of soil in there. The light is about 30” away from the plant and i only use one light that i got on Ebay for the whole grow. Is that a problem?

I started with a red/blue LED light panel, I had to buy a 2nd because my closet was full of 3 photoperiod plants. Mine had two switches: Veg and Bloom. Some use both through the entire grow, some use veg to start, later they use both. I don't know if you're using a 'hot' soil or if you're adding nutrients, I thought maybe topping off the soil might bring more food to the roots. If you can move the light closer without any negative effects I'd try that. And bloom additives for flowering. What actual watts is your light pulling from the wall? This can be confusing with some light manufacturers' advertising.

What do you mean by hot soil? i’m just using regular soil from local store. Only nutrients i’m using are Bio Grow and Bio Bloom from Biobizz but i’m propably gonna use some more nutrients for next grow and also better soil. I have 300w led light which should be suitable for both Veg and Bloom, but i’m not sure about that..
